    Time travel! Historical setting! Old lady! Not a story of oppression! 1️⃣ The female protagonist time-travels to become an extreme old lady. The original owner exploited everyone, and she continues her dictatorial ways. She's shrewd and understands human nature, always taking the initiative. Using her special abilities to improve her life, she frequently uses dramatic gestures to subdue the family members one by one, finding a way to control each one. Some parts are very touching. The eldest son, having witnessed his mother's hardships, is always considerate and filial. The fifth son, despite never being appreciated, keeps trying to get closer to her. [You can't be a pushover; otherwise, when something difficult and thankless happens, you'll be the first person people think of. But you also can't take everything for yourself; people might envy you on the surface, but behind your back, they'll only harbor hatred.] [Don't think that only high society has different classes and hierarchies; the same applies to the lower classes, only it's not about class-based oppression, but about the exploitation and oppression of people, consciously or unconsciously.] 2️⃣ The female lead is intelligent and cautious, clear-headed and resourceful. She has a special ability but doesn't take on too much; she only secretly improves her own life. She separates from the family at the beginning, avoiding constant conflicts with the extended family. Occasionally, she takes care of the original owner's child, asking for their help and giving them things in return—a reciprocal and peaceful life. 3️⃣ The female lead is a modern-day career woman who transmigrates into the body of a remarkable old lady. She begins to change things. She is shrewd and meticulous in her dealings, using her wisdom to unlock and nurture the potential of her entire family—truly outstanding!

    These are the few books I've read that I think have good writing and plot! I'm currently following the first one; the writing is excellent. The past life was quite tragic, but it wasn't described in a lot of detail. The rebirth is very satisfying, not at all frustrating, and the language is particularly humorous. The writing is very good, and I'm staying up late every night to read it. The second one is a famine relief novel with a cheat-like space ability that allows the protagonist to travel to the modern world. The writing is also good. I read the last three before, so I've forgotten a bit, but the writing is definitely top-notch!

    This book tells the story of a township-level civil servant who travels back in time to ancient China and uses the skills he learned at the grassroots level to gradually and effectively help a dynasty prosper. While it has some flaws, its strengths outweigh its weaknesses. The content is vivid, and although there are some exaggerations, it's truly captivating. The writing style reveals the author's understanding of grassroots work; art truly reflects real life. 🤭
